eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result 4t1441 BOB KANE 7.25x9.25 still 1966 the Batman creator w/his huge sketch of Batman & Robin, rare! Date Sold 8/1/2023Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage 7 1/4" x 9 1/4" [18 x 23 cm] Still (Learn More) Bob Kane was an American comic book artist and writer from the 1930s to the 1990s. He is the co-creator of the legendary comic book hero, Batman (although he took sole credit for many years, but it eventually came out that not only did others create many of the Batman concepts, but he also drew little or no actual art, so other than the initial idea for Batman, it is not certain how much he ever actually did). He was inducted into both the comic book industry's Jack Kirby Hall of Fame in 1994 and the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame in 1996. He passed away in 1998 at the age of 83. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of two great stills showing Bob Kane we were consigned. The other one was a news photo (perhaps this one is too, but it has no markings on the back) that showed Bob Kane with paintings of Robin, Catwoman, and Penguin, which Kane was passing off as his own work, but which we now know were done by a "ghost painter"! THIS really cool still shows him with an extremely large pencil drawing of Batman and Robin on the wall that is signed by him, and of course, we now know that someone else drew that for him, but that he passed it off as his own work. Our consignor only had these two stills, and no others. The other one was auctioned on 7/4/2023. Once this one is sold, we will have no more of these, so this is your last chance to purchase one! Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 1/4" x 9 1/4" [18 x 23 cm]. Condition: good. The still was neatly trimmed around the edges. There are some orange grease pencil marks within the image, where there were once printer instructions. Otherwise, the still is in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
